Chapter 427: Wafer Factory? (1/40, ask for a commuter pass!) )
The "little" Dongfang Bell is not worthy of Boss Lin to take them to heart, some people, if you don't take them seriously, they are actually like this, but the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications needs snacks, but Xiao Yan's next sentence made Boss Lin squirt a mouthful of saliva.
"Poof~~ What did you say?" Lin Zheng's eyes were about to pop out, "There is a Bay Island man who peddles wafer factories in the capital?" ”
Wafer Fab ...... This is an industry that the state should vigorously support, okay? As long as it is more than 5 inches, as long as someone can get it, what policy the country will give you whatever policy you want, what, you said that even the project of packaging and testing outside the wafer factory can be on? Congratulations, you've become the son of the republic.
"That's right, a 5-inch wafer factory with a 0.35 micron process has a monthly production capacity of 30,000 pieces, and the investment is about 100 million US dollars, including wafer tape packaging and testing," Xiao Yan's eyes were a little hot, and when she heard the news, she decided immediately, and she had to get this project in her hands desperately, as for Lin Zheng, she had no money in his hands...... Is this still a difficult problem to solve? "This is a 5-inch wafer factory, how about it, think about it?"
"Isn't that right?" Lin Zheng groaned for a moment, he was not knocked down by this huge news, but was surprised by the price, "A 5-inch wafer factory only costs 100 million US dollars?" ”
Although Lin Zheng doesn't have a very accurate concept of the cost of a wafer factory, even a 4-inch wafer factory can't be taken down by $100 million, right? Anyone who knows a little bit about semiconductors knows that the size of this wafer increases by 1 inch. The input will increase exponentially.
The core of investing in a wafer factory is three things, one is money. The second is equipment, and the third is people.
Let's talk about money first, since the signing of the Plaza Agreement, Japan's wafer fabs have begun to decline, and the main reason is that there is no money. In Lin Zheng's memory, Intel after 2000 has to spend a difference of 20 billion US dollars every year to research new processes and build new factories, and the annual investment of all wafer factories in South Korea and Bay Island may not be as much as Intel.
Let's talk about equipment. Wafer factories need a lot of funds, and the biggest use of funds is to buy equipment, when it was last life. Lin Zheng remembers that it was about 09 years when a broker on Hong Kong Island sold second-hand lithography machines, and a second-hand lithography machine produced in 1983 dared to ask for 15 million RMB, and this equipment is the main equipment of the domestic wafer production line below 8 inches.
Finally, talk about people. This is, of course, the most important thing. Without a large number of skilled workers and engineers, even if your wafer factory is built, there is no way to start, after 05 years, the domestic practice is to throw money, and the government comes forward to throw out a large amount of money, from the economic recession has begun to decline Bay Island to attract semiconductor practitioners, attracting a lot of powerful guys, of course, there are many people who take advantage of this east wind to cheat money and enclose land.
That's a bit far. But what is certain is that a factory with a monthly output of 30,000 5-inch wafers and a 0.35-micron process technology. If it is brand new equipment, the investment scale will not be less than 300 million US dollars, even if it is second-hand equipment, the investment will not be less than 150 million ...... Not counting the cost of land.
Now Xiao Yan sued herself that there were people from Wandao who sold a 0.35 micron, 5-inch wafer factory for 100 million, and there must be fraud in this!
"It's something that a Bay Island person named Cai Nanxiong is engaged in, saying that it is a production line eliminated by TSMC, so it is so cheap." Xiao Yan was indeed concerned about this matter and inquired a lot about the situation.
"Cai Nanxiong?" Lin Zheng's brows suddenly wrinkled, and the name of a semiconductor company immediately came to Lin Zheng's mind: Ning & Bo Zhongwei! Didn't Koning & Bo Zhongwei start to do it in 02? And it's 6 inches.
In '02, Dr. Feng Mingxian and Cai Nanxiong, doctors from Wandao Liumei, advocated their market theory to the Ningbo and Bo municipal governments: the state should not blindly support high-end projects and ignore the low-end markets that are mature and have better economic benefits.
They believed that although the 6-inch production line, which was slightly outdated at that time, was low-end, the basic market was large, and the benefits should be good...... If nothing else, that's not wrong...... They are going to build a wafer factory with an annual output of 240,000 6-inch chips, which can achieve an output value of 84 million US dollars, 50% of which will be exported.
At that time, when the Yangtze River Delta region was flocking to semiconductor projects, the leaders of the Ningbo & Bo Municipal Government were excited about Feng Mingxian and Cai Nanxiong's words, and invested 249 million US dollars in batches to introduce a 6-inch semiconductor production line from TSMC in the 80s, and Zhongwei also became the first semiconductor manufacturer in Ningbo.
But the future is good, but the development of things backfired, Zhongwei's capital contribution structure is congenitally insufficient, registered with imported equipment to replenish, monetary contribution is very small, although in accordance with the law, but caused by the capital structure congenital defects, insufficient liquidity, tight capital chain, coupled with the aging of the production line, production capacity has been unable to effectively expand and other reasons, the company is insolvent, its monthly output at the best time is only more than 10,000 pieces, during this period, there were some Taiwan executives arbitrage company assets, After such a toss, in the second half of 08, Zhongwei finally became insolvent and declared bankruptcy, and had to package and auction related assets including industrial real estate and electronic equipment, machinery and equipment, transportation equipment and know-how project transfer.
There is no doubt that in the process of Zhongwei's fall, the pockets of Zhongwei's two bosses, Feng Mingxian and Cai Nanxiong, bulged.
As long as there are people related to the electronics industry, there are almost no people who don't know, and when they heard that it was Cai Nanxiong, Lin Zheng couldn't help but start muttering in his heart: This product started to cheat in the mainland so early?
Seeing Lin Zheng frowning, Xiao Yan felt that something was not good, and asked cautiously, "What?" Something is wrong with this person? ”
"This man...... How can I say it......" Lin Zheng frowned, and then said slowly, "Coincidentally, I just happened to know that TSMC does have a 5-inch production line ready to be sold, but not now, but almost 3 years later." ”
"You mean, this man is a liar?" Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then her face was murderous!
Money is not too big a problem, but if you are deceived by someone, it will be really embarrassing, and Miss Xiao can't afford to lose this person.
Lin Zheng shook his head, "It can't be said that he is a liar, Cai Nanxiong still has some ways in the semiconductor world of Bay Island, but he doesn't have many good intentions anyway...... It's also not a good time to get on the wafer. ”
"Tsk......" Xiao Yan sighed depressedly, if the Wandao man surnamed Cai could really get a wafer production and packaging and testing factory, he would have to make this project anything, a 5-inch wafer factory, how big is the political and economic significance of this, then needless to say, but I didn't expect it to be a liar who couldn't move!
"Don't be depressed, you should think so, if it's really that simple, the conditions for semiconductors in the magic capital are much better than ours in Langya, and they must have broken their heads for this matter a long time ago? …… I don't believe that this guy surnamed Cai hasn't gone to those cities in the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta to sell his set! ”
"That's right...... Reasonable. Although she was a little reluctant in her heart, Xiao Yan also had to admit that Lin Zheng's words were indeed reasonable, since this guy surnamed Cai can still live so nourishingly, it means that this guy has more or less two brushes in his hand, and if he can't be used now, it doesn't mean that he won't be needed in the future, but it is inconvenient to move him.
――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Do you want me to go in with you?" Standing at the gate of the Export-Import Bank of the Republic with Lin Zheng, Xiao Yan asked Lin Zheng with a smile.
"Thank you, no need," Lin Zheng shook his head disappretently, "I have a lot of dealings with banks. ”
The cooperation between Lianchuang Technology and the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of Belarus is a foreign cooperation project that the state attaches great importance to, and the funds needed for this foreign cooperation project have been entrusted by the cabinet to the Export-Import Bank of the Republic to contract.
"Then you also have to be mentally prepared, the people inside are not too easy to talk." After all, Lin Zheng had no experience in dealing with ministry-level units in the past, and Xiao Yan was still a little worried.
"Difficult to deal with?" Lin Zheng snorted, "If they have the ability, they will kill my project, who will I be in a hurry when the time comes!" ”
"You're a man, hey......"
Xiao Yan shook her head speechlessly, her original intention was to remind Lin Zheng, after all, this is the Export-Import Bank of China, and there should be no less rules, and if you can be less troublesome, you will be less troublesome, but I didn't expect this kid to be so young and vigorous that Cheng dù: Is this a loss that refuses to eat at all?
But having said that, Xiao Yan also had to admit that Lin Zheng's words did make sense, although Lianchuang Technology was worried that the allocation of funds would be delayed because of his lack of points, but this money was a policy loan that the cabinet personally gave instructions, and the Export-Import Bank dared to card Lin Zheng a little bit to get benefits, but if this matter was delayed, the people who handled the project would definitely not be able to eat and walk around...... Who will bear this responsibility for delaying the country's strategic layout?
The competition in this matter is whose qi cultivation kung fu is enough, Xiao Yan was originally a little worried, but when she heard Lin Zheng say this, she breathed a sigh of relief: the little guy is unwilling to suffer a loss even if he dies.
"But be polite," Xiao Yan hesitated for a moment, but still admonished, "If your company's similar business can increase in the future, it will not hurt you to maintain a moderate relationship with them." ”
